TypEx : a type based approach to XML stream querying

We consider the topic of query evaluation over semistructured information streams, and XML data streams in particular. Streaming evaluation methods are necessarily eventdriven, which is in tension with high-level query models; in general, the more expressive the query language, the harder it is to translate queries into an event-based implementation with finite resource bounds

Fund Finder: A case study of database-to-ontology mapping

The mapping between databases and ontologies is a basic problem when trying to "upgrade" deep web content to the semantic web. Our approach suggests the declarative definition of mappings as a way to achieve domain independency and reusability. A specific language (expressive enough to cover some real world mapping situations like lightly structured databases or not 1st normal form ones) is defined for this purpose. Along with this mapping description language, the ODEMapster processor is in charge of carrying out the effective instance data migration. We illustrate this by testing both the mappings definition and processor on a case study
